Osceola records mergers and local notices through decades
Ten years ago in early 1965 Osceola News announced a merger with the Clarks News and Silver Creek Land into the Osceola Record. Also noted were anniversaries, births in Osceola, and local moves including the Anderson family to Samaritan Home and the Larsons wedding reception. Twenty years ago highlights from 1954 mention staffing changes and a new city water well site, plus church weddings and stock market notes. Thirty, forty, fifty, and sixty years ago items cover farm payments, corn loans, school and club activities, births, weddings, and local business changes in Osceola from 1924 to 1944.
